Just for your advance info, there is another e-mail hoax calling itself
'NaughtyRobot' in circulation, which apparently sends mail like:
 
>  This message was sent to you by NaughtyRobot, an Internet spider that
>  crawls into your server through a tiny hole in the World Wide Web.
>  
>  NaughtyRobot exploits a security bug in HTTP and has visited your host
>  system to collect personal, private, and sensitive information.
>  
>  It has captured your Email and physical addresses, as well as your phone
>  and credit card numbers.  To protect yourself against the misuse of this
>  information, do the following:
>  
>          1. alert your server SysOp,
>          2. contact your local police,
>          3. disconnect your telephone, and
>          4. report your credit cards as lost.
>  
>  Act at once.  Remember: only YOU can prevent DATA fires.
>  
>  This has been a public service announcement from the makers of
>  NaughtyRobot -- CarJacking its way onto the Information SuperHighway.
